It's alright...  Micky is making his list and updating it twice...

and it is early.  This fight has just begun!! Clap I have faith in the intellect of prog fan to recognize the redeeming quality of brilliance of a group that is not the most easy to listen to or accessible but highly creative and distinctive in sound and structure over the bland generic prog of a popular group.

half the fun will be pulling out a late victory if we can keep it close... and sweet as revenge is on that level would be... the real fun will be taking revenge out on the forums on those who have displeased me Angry LOL

I like two ELP records, the debut and a live one. I like seven CAMEL albums so it's an easy choice. I'll take the Marijuana over the Speed any day.LOL

I don't like either, but voted for ELP in revenge for DSO!

ELP, despite Latimer's superb playing. Lake's vocals do it for me.
A GREAT YEAR FOR PROG!!!

The ones who made a whole album about a bird.

ELP are great, but Camel connects with me on a whole different level. And I find them to be more consistent.

I like both, so this one's hard, but I have to give my vote to Camel. Moonmadness trumps anything ELP ever recorded, IMO.

A band with nearly 40 years of great albums v a band who shone for about 4 before turning out lemons like Love Beach.

listening to Camel is a great, albeit buttery experience.

ELP is obviously a much more import band but I rarely listen.  Camel it is.

I definitely prefer Camel to ELP, though ELP still has produced some quality stuff.
